Fans nine in Game 1 loss Pivetta took the loss in Tuesday's game against the Cubs after surrendering two earned runs on three hits and no walks while striking out nine batters across five innings.
Impact The right-hander had allowed just one man to reach base through the first four innings of Tuesday's contest, but a pair of solo homers from Seiya Suzuki and Carson Kelly to lead off the fifth put Chicago in front. Pivetta struck out the next three batters he faced to finish his start; however, a shutdown performance from the Cubs' bullpen kept the Padres behind for the rest of the game. It was a reassuring performance from the 32-year-old after he finished the regular season by giving up six runs in 10.1 frames, but San Diego will now need to win two straight games at Wrigley Field for Pivetta to have any chance of facing the Brewers in the NLDS.

Starting Game 1 Pivetta will draw the start in Tuesday's Game 1 matchup with the Cubs in the wild-card round, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Impact Pivetta will take the mound as the Padres' postseason run begins Tuesday, earning the nod after posting a 2.87 ERA and 0.99 WHIP with 190 strikeouts over 181.2 innings in 31 starts this season. The right-hander has surrendered six runs on 11 hits and five walks, while striking out 10 batters over 10.1 innings in his last two outings. Pivetta previously matched up with the Cubs twice in April, combining to pitch nine innings, giving up four runs on 10 hits and four walks, while punching out 10.

Struggles with control Pivetta did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing three runs on four hits and five walks over 5.2 innings in a 5-4 victory over the Brewers. He struck out five.
Impact Pivetta delivered a decent outing Monday, though his five walks marked a season high. The 32-year-old has been sharp throughout 2025 and has stayed steady down the stretch, carrying a 2.90 ERA and 1.12 WHIP across 40.1 innings in his past seven starts, numbers that closely mirror his season line of a 2.87 ERA and 0.99 WHIP over 181.2 innings in 31 outings. He's currently lined up to start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Diamondbacks, but the Padres could hold him back to open a potential Wild Card Series game.
